Pioneers Rest Cemetery West Jeddore Halifax County Nova Scotia
Here are some photos I took at the Pioneers Rest graveyard in early November 2018 during my trip to West Jeddore. I only saw a few headstones although there may have been more laying down hidden in the brush. Unfortunately this historical site is in need of care and cleaning up.
